Linseed Oil Raw is the unrefined, natural oil extracted from flax seeds through cold pressing or solvent extraction. It contains natural impurities such as gums, waxes, and free fatty acids, giving it a darker color and stronger odor compared to refined oils. Raw linseed oil is a drying oil known for its excellent film-forming and adhesive properties. It is widely used in traditional wood finishing, oil painting, and industrial applications where natural and slow-drying oil is preferred.

Cherry Kernel Oil
Cherry Kernel Oil, extracted from the seeds of sweet cherries (Prunus avium), is a lightweight, golden-yellow carrier oil with a mild, nutty aroma. This oil is produced through cold pressing of cherry kernels and is rich in oleic and linoleic acids, along with naturally occurring tocopherols (Vitamin E) and phytosterols. Known for its excellent emollient, antioxidant, and regenerative properties, it absorbs quickly and nourishes the skin without leaving a greasy residue.
It is widely used in skin care, hair care, baby products, and aromatherapy. Its gentle nature makes it suitable for sensitive and mature skin, while its light texture and stability make it a favored base oil in cosmetic formulations, massage blends, and eco-conscious personal care lines.
Chlorinated Paraffin Wax
Chlorinated Paraffin Wax is a synthetic chlorinated hydrocarbon obtained by the chlorination of paraffin wax. It typically appears as a waxy solid, ranging from light yellow to dark brown depending on the degree of chlorination and the chain length of the paraffins. CPW is valued for its excellent flame retardant, plasticizing, and extreme pressure (EP) additive properties. It is widely used in industrial applications including metalworking fluids, PVC formulations, rubber compounding, and flame retardant materials.

Hydrocarbon Resins C5 And C9 Petroleum Resins
Hydrocarbon Resins C5 And C9 Petroleum Resins are synthetic petroleum-derived resins produced through the polymerization of C5 (pentene) and C9 (nonene) fraction monomers. These resins appear as pale yellow to amber solid materials, usually in pellet or flake form, characterized by tackifying and adhesive properties. C5 resins are derived from aliphatic hydrocarbons, while C9 resins originate from aromatic hydrocarbons. Often blended, these resins provide a balance of hardness, tackiness, and compatibility with various polymers. Widely used as tackifiers, binders, and modifiers, C5 & C9 hydrocarbon resins enhance performance in adhesives, coatings, rubber compounding, and more.
Linseed Oil Alkali Refined
